Exploring California: Muir Woods

Ryder and I both had Presidents Day off on Monday, so we headed up to Muir Woods for a hike.

The redwoods are very pretty, and we hiked for a while along a babbling creek.

Our hike took us through some of the redwoods and then out into Mt. Tamalpais State Park, which meant most of our hike was sort of an average, partially sunny-partially forested hike, and not that many redwoods. The first part of the hike by the redwoods and the creek was my favorite part, but if I want to see redwoods again I would head to Big Basin instead of Muir Woods – it has more extensive trails and is easier to get to for us.

Overall, though, our Muir Woods hike was a lovely way to spend a day off.
